The Reserve Pinot Noir “Arnar” is produced in vineyards located 500 meters above sea level, planted on mixed clay and limestone soils. In the soil, we find particles of dolomitic stone, which give the grapes a unique minerality, a typical characteristic of mountain wines. The grapes are hand-picked and then vinified in stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation occurs along with a maceration of about 10 days, during which delicate pump-overs are performed to ensure a slow and selective extraction. In this phase, the typical aromas of red fruits of the variety strongly emerge, which is then aged in large oak barrels, where it acquires the structure and complexity typical of this “Reserve.”
